Commentary on Job 15:8

Theological / Devotional

Secret. Heb. sod, a council, a circle of friends sitting together for familiar conversation. Sod is translated “assembly” in Jer. 6:11; 15:17; Eze. 13:9, and “counsel” in Jer. 23:18, 22.

Restrain wisdom. That is, do you monopolize wisdom? Job brought substantially the same charge against his friends in ch. 12:2.
